I had the Truffled pizza. Let me tell you about the flavor country I visited while enjoying this pie. The lemon garlic cream sauce made a lovely foundation for the mozzarella, provolone, thin strips of crispy bacon, mushrooms, and white truffle drizzle. The gluten-free crust was light and bubbly, though a bit on the well-done side, which I didn't mind. Overall, yes, yes, and yaaas! The roast beef and swiss sandwich on the gluten-free baguette was generous, rustic, and delicious. Caramelized onions, mushrooms, horseradish, stacked layers of roast beef and melty swiss were super satisfying. And let's not forget the sweets. We had 2 different cupcakes. Blackberry lemon and some kind with peanut butter. Oh, man! I recommend this bakery 100%. Run, don't walk!

I saw the amount of peanut butter that was in this, but surprisingly, I was expecting a little more of a flavor of that when I ate it. Will I go back? Possibly.

They post their Saturday specials every week and they always sound amazing, but this one especially lured me in. I stopped in late on a Saturday morning, expecting them to be sold out of some of their goodies. Not at all. The case was still stocked with beautiful pastries and sweets. I was helped immediately, even though there were about 5 people ahead of me. I was instantly swooning over the gorgeous cakes In The window and the charming decor. I honestly did not know they had a seating area, it was so cute! I said TO GO before I noticed the darling dining room. My transaction was swift and the girl was polite. I do wish there was a better parking solution. Lakewood, amirite? The apricot tart was fine Chocolate chip scone good Kalamata and feta scone was awesome ham Quiche was perfection. Crust was top notch and filling was set up expertly. I reheated it gently in the air fryer and this baby was exquisite. The portions were average and prices were competitive. These days, it is a treat to enjoy something local and homemade. It's always worth the cost to have the privilege of supporting a local business. I absolutely will return for more delights.

No offense but as somebody who was a cake decorator and a baker before too, that is a ridiculous price.

I would love to support a small business and a local one at that, but there's no way I would ever pay that much for one cookie.
